Why Sofia Richie's Brother Miles Did Not Attend Her Wedding
Emma Powell Sofia Richie's brother wasn't there on her wedding day. Miles Richie missed out on his younger sister's nuptials to Elliot Grainge after testing positive for COVID-19, ET confirms.
"Miles wasn't feeling well before the wedding so he got a COVID test, and it came back positive," a rep for the siblings tells ET. "Sofia would have loved for her brother to have been there on her special day, but she understands why he couldn't make it. The 28-year-old musician was missed by the family and all the wedding guests."
TMZ was first to report this story.
While he didn't make it to the nuptials, Miles did post a pic of the bride and groom on his Instagram Story, writing, "Absolutely obsessed with you two. Love you."
While Miles wasn't there for the big day, Sofia's other sibling, her older sister Nicole Richie, was on hand for the wedding.
Sofia, 24, and Grainge, 29, tied the knot at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, France, on Saturday. Leading up to the ceremony, a source told ET that the couple was "so excited for their wedding celebrations."
"They are so in love and their families and friends can't wait to be part of this. Everyone has been trickling into France ahead of the big day and those who have been there have been having the best time," the source said. "Sofia and Elliot have an amazing relationship and are very in love and in sync."
Afterwards, ET spoke to Lionel Richie, the father of the bride, who opened up about the nuptials.
"It is a humbling time in your life, because you're handing one of the loves of your life away," he said. "But really, I'll tell you a story, I've known Elliot since he was 9. So interestingly enough, I didn't have to vet the kid. I know who he is!... I love him. I love them. So it was really great."
